The Arduboy Toolset is a cross-platform, all-in-one, portable application for working with Arduboy. It lets you do almost everything you'd need, aside from compiling games:
- Upload and backup Sketches, Flashcarts, and EEPROM
- Convert images to program data (sprites, tilesheets, etc)
- Modify the Flashcart to add games, modify categories + title images, etc
- Update your Arduboy FX and Arduboy Mini with the latest games from the Cart Builder
- Create Arduboy Packages to share you games with the community
This is a GUI program written in Python. If you want a lightweight CLI program instead, see Ardugotools

FAQ
The toolset doesn't run on my system (Windows)
The toolset targets Windows 10+. The targets for Windows and Mac are determined by PyInstaller, so I don't have control over the very high targets (I'm sorry).
If you suspect you are having a different issue, please open an issue on Github or leave a post on the Community thread.
Windows/etc is reporting the toolset has a virus
Virus detection is imprecise and basically all programs built with Pyinstaller will be flagged as a virus. I understand if this causes you not to want to use the program, but you should know this is a widely known issue that doesn't seem able to be overcome at this time.
